Kindred enters Indiana and Iowa in partnership with Caesars
Operator to provide online betting and gaming in both states as part of 10-year partnership
Kindred has signed a market-access deal with Caesars Entertainment to offer online betting and casino in Indiana and Iowa.
Under the 10-year contract the Unibet-operated firm will partner with Caesars’ Horseshoe Hammond Property in Indiana and Harrah’s Council Bluffs in Iowa.
Kindred will extend its platform deals with Pala Interactive and Kambi into the two new states.
Caesars will continue to operate its own betting offering under the Caesars Sports brand in these states
Manuel Stan, SVP Kindred US, said: “We are thrilled to further extend our presence in the US together with one of the world’s most renowned and diversified casino-entertainment providers.
“Caesars’ geographical spread in the US gives us a unique opportunity to build our footprint, with Indiana and Iowa next in line and potential other states lined up,” Stan said.
Executive vice president for Caesars Christian Stuart said: “As Caesars Entertainment continues to gain state approvals for legalised sports betting in the US, we look forward to adding Kindred to our list of sports betting partners in certain states.”
The deal could include access additional states further down the line.
Kindred launched its casino and betting apps in Pennsylvania in November last year.
The Swedish firm will announce its Q4 19 earnings tomorrow morning.
